[QUOTE="AmishMafia, post: 448807, member: 2846"] We don't live in the 1700s when an ocean was a very effective border. This is a very different world that we live in and geopolitical science of Burke's times is irrelevant today. Like it or not our neighbors on the other side of this world are getting closer and closer. And I'm not just referring to transportation advances, I'm referencing the internet. The information age is moving us closer as a society. The evolving global economy has tied us all financially together. Its amazing that a financial Faux pas in Greece results in a reduction on rice exports from Thialand the next day. Why does that happen? Who knows? Its a vastly complex integrated global system. As such, the problems and situations of Iran, Iraq, Argentina and Andorra are at our doorstep. Rouge countries bent on destroying the US have more and more alternatives to cause destruction. Even small events can lead to financial instability and collapse of economies. Isolationism was a dangerous idea in WWII and would set the stage for castastrophic consequences today. We need to set a proactive example of freedom and pioneer opportunity to the dark recesses of the world. Freedom is such a powerful concept, the reality of it is overwhelming to the populace. I doubt it is recognized at first other than the most simplest of issues, but as a society evolves under freedom it can't go back. With opportunity to join the world's society, peace and prosperity can reign for all mankind. And that is worth fighting for. [/QUOTE]
